A colleague and I were asked to write pro and con articles for the Horizon ThinkTank. We enjoyed the process and the assignment. I was given the “pro” side, with which I went about supporting theologically and biblically (though I question the use of the word “ethical” in task). I was happy for the opportunity, because I do not think the biblical witness is as clear-cut as many might suppose. The issue was published last week.
